Product Description
The Star Kingdom of Manticore and the Republic of Haven have been enemies for Honor Harrington's entire life, and she has paid a price for the victories she's achieved in that conflict. And now the unstoppable juggernaut of the mighty Solarian League is on a collision course with Manticore. The millions who have already died may have been only a foretaste of the billions of casualties just over the horizon, and Honor sees it coming. She's prepared to do anything, risk anything, to stop it, and she has a plan that may finally bring an end to the Havenite Wars and give even the Solarian League pause. But there are things not even Honor knows about. There are forces in play, hidden enemies in motion, all converging on the Star Kingdom of Manticore to crush the very life out of it, and Honor's worst nightmares fall short of the oncoming reality. But Manticore's enemies may not have thought of everything after all. Because if everything Honor Harrington loves is going down to destruction, it won't be going alone. |

A mixed bag, Monday, August 30, 2010
I dithered over whether to give this book 3 or 4 stars, but eventually settled on 3 mostly because I got so bored during the looong description of the battle at Spindle that I started skipping entire paragraphs. I can hardly believe it myself, even as I'm typing it out. I skipped entire paragraphs of a David Weber Space Battle because it was boring? How can that be?
I liked the plot of this book. I even like the complicated mix of characters, politics, diplomacy, family, and military action that has become the Honor Harrington series. I don't mind one bit that Honor was not the focus of the entire or even the majority of the book because I have grown fond of the other characters of the Honorverse and actually like reading about them. And, I can't wait for the next book.
However, all things in moderation. And all too many of the events of this book were described in excruciatingly painful, never-ending, minute, and unnecessary detail. Enough already!
